Freezer Meals: Chicken

This week my local grocery store has chicken leg quarters on sale for $.59 per pound. I usually buy the big 10 pound bags, and freeze them. I realized that thawing the bags whole was a disaster! So I started to separate them into individual meal portions. I'm a fan of freezer cooking, so I decided to start making meals as I portioned them (duh, why didn't I think of that before?). Unless you want a whole leg quarter (the thigh and leg combined), then you're going to have to separate the thigh from the leg. Once you butcher your chicken, you will have thighs for certain meals, and legs for other meals. This is what was on sale, so that is what I am using.
